Exhibit_B_Disclosure_of_Lobbying_Activities.pdf

This document is an SF-LLL Disclosure of Lobbying Activities form, which is a standardized federal reporting document used to disclose lobbying activities pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 1352. The form is designed to be completed by a reporting entity at the initiation or receipt of a covered Federal action, such as a contract, grant, or cooperative agreement. While the specific form is blank and no details have been filled in, the instructions provide guidance for completing the disclosure, which includes identifying the type of Federal action, its status, the reporting entity's information, and details about lobbying registrants and individuals performing lobbying services.

The form requires detailed information about lobbying activities, including the Federal department/agency involved, the Federal program name, action number, award amount, and specifics about lobbying registrants. The instructions emphasize that this disclosure is required when making payments to any lobbying entity for influencing or attempting to influence an officer or employee of an agency, a Member of Congress, or an employee of Congress in connection with a covered Federal action. The form is subject to public inspection and carries potential civil penalties for failure to file or false statements, with penalties ranging up to $100,000 for each such failure.
